This course will take you through the ins and outs of creating concept artwork based on your story. It will begin with a variety of worldbuilding exercises, and then you'll learn the basic shape and design fundamentals. From there, you’ll progress to designing props and a location for your world, and then finish the course by creating a digital painting of story moment with a focus on the environment design.

This course is a hybrid format, allowing for both interactive experiences directly with the instructor, as well as time to work on assignments on your own. There will be demonstrations, feedback, and a private Group Discord to share your work and discuss the assignments, share resources, and grow together between classes.
